SANTA TO BE AT WEST PARK MALL ON SATURDAY

Santa Claus will arrive at West Park Mall in Cape Girardeau Saturday.

Children may participate in a special Christmas sing-a-long to welcome Santa.

Judy Sharp, choir and band director of Oak Ridge schools, will lead the sing-a-long. A special choir of 50 area children will perform at 9 a.m. in the J.C. Penney court area.

A special parade led by Santa will go to the Famous Barr court to wake up "Talking Teddy." Then Santa will return to center court, where he has a seat beside a 24-foot Christmas tree, where he will be available for pictures and visits until Dec. 24.
